  4. A soda maker that purchases its leading competitor is backward integrated.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

  4. A tenable position.

The retail petroleum industry consists of a few large firms that sell a standardized product.Which of the following best describes this industry?

  1. Monopoly.
  2. Oligopoly.
  3. Monopolistic competition.
  4. Pure competition.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

An oligopoly consists of a few large firms. If products are standardized, competition may be based solely on price. If products are partially differentiated, each firm may attempt to lead the industry regarding a given attribute, e.g., price, quality, service, or features. The retail petroleum industry is dominated by a small number of firms that control a vast majority of the market. Furthermore, it is an example of an industry that sells a standardized product, with competition based primarily on price.



A corporation produces uniforms that it sells and rents to businesses. The corporation recently acquired a textile mill that produces synthetic cloth. This acquisition is an example of:

  1. Horizontal integration Forward integration
  2. Horizontal integration Backward integration
  3. Vertical integration Forward integration
  4. Vertical integration Backward integration

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The degree of backward and forward vertical integration along the value chain varies with the industry. The corporation acquired one of its suppliers, which is on a different level of the value chain. Thus, the combination involved vertical integration. Moreover, the acquisition of a supplier is characteristic of backward integration.
